I was completely non-plussed by Sweeney Todd. I thought Depp coasted his way through it and Alan Rickman was virtually sleep-walking. The songs were a bit naff and overall the whole thing had too much of a "Falling back on the good ol' Burton/Depp partnership" feel to it.

However, I thought Helena Bonham Carter, Timothy Spall and Sasha Baron Cohen all gave really good performances. Shame Depp chewed up all the screen time.

I think I may have upset the Johnny Depp Fangirl Brigade when I gave my rather negative review of it during last year's "2007 in Film" panel ;)
